The Juice is worth the Squeeze – Imperial Grapefruit IPA

I’ve been looking at brewing a grapefruit IPA for a while. I was reading HomeBrewTalk.com a few months back when I came across a recipe that sounded promising. Using the provided recipe for The Juice is worth the Squeeze I made some adjustments. Those adjustments took in to account the hops I had on hand and my equipment. What I ended up with truly did taste like grapefruit.

The only thing I really need to mention is that you will need to make sure all of the grapefruit zest is filtered out before you keg this. I had problems with the zest clogging the dip tube. I had to disassemble the keg out post several times to clean it out. It was a simple process but one that taught me a valuable lesson about making sure you get all of the debris out of your brew before kegging.
